Introduction to Outlast Trials

Outlast has been known as “The Most Horrying Game” to exist… like ever if you ask me. Red Barrels, the maker of Outlast franchise, made the Outlast Trials an initially paid game, meaning you will have to spend some cash on it.

The game is going to get into early access on 18th May 2023, giving you a Co-op Multiplayer experience over the duology. Yeah, we know it is experimental, but who wouldn’t like multiple survivors to play together and scream in agony while those bulked zombies follow you?

That is the case here… everyone would like to experience that. So, Red Barrel went ahead and threw a Multiplayer Experience over the traditional Outlast Experience.

One more thing lads. The game is present in the Cold War era when some insane scientists conducted experiments on pigs to control or brainwash them. There is a smell of fear, violence, and deadly disturbance all around, challenging your spirit, endurance, and sanity.

So folks, before you jump into the game without making up your mind, Think Twice.With that being said, let’s cut straight to the chase here…

Another reason for Outlast Trials UE Crashing is an outdated graphics driver. We highly recommend getting the latest update for your PC to ensure the game runs smoothly. You can visit your hardware manufacturer’s official website to get the latest update for your device.

Updating drivers manually can be complicated and time-consuming. For a simpler method, we recommend using IObit’s Driver Booster to automatically download and fetch the latest and needed driver updates for your PC. Follow these steps to use the software:

  1. Download Driver Booster.
  2. Install and run the software.
  3. Click the Scan button and let Driver Booster scan any outdated drivers on your PC.
  4. If the software found any outdated driver, click the Update Now button located on the upper left of the window.
  5. Wait until the Driver Booster finished the driver download and installation process.

Note that your PC may restart several times depending on the drivers that are being updated. After the driver update completion, try running Outlast Trials again to see if the issues have been fixed.

Verify Game Integrity

  2. Select Outlast Trials from the game list on the left side.
  3. Right-click and select Properties.
  4. Click the Local Files tab.
  5. Click the Verify integrity of game files… button.
